Cool that you guys are doing this!

[@MrOconner10]

Great informative video, I am curious If the mounting location will be problematic for the Everglades in reference to the snorkel.

[@FernandoLopez48]

Awesome stuff, exactly what I wanted to be educated on.

[@extrarounds3827]

Awesome video man thanks!!! 🎉

[@Jeep.Generation]

Great job guys!

What are your thoughts about the wide-40 beam pattern on the a-pillar? Video request…I’d like to see a comparison of the gravity beams.

[@HBButler01]

Would love to see one on adjusting some forward bumper Driving Beams. How far up or down onto the road/trail should they point compared to a spot beam.

[@jackspringer9283]

Please stress how dangerous it is using off road driving lights with oncoming traffic,even across interstate medians, the persons blinded could easily crash because of Bright Light Ignorance or crash into the vehicle blinding them

[@maverick_jl]

Yeah I'd like to know where to point them, is it a degree based angle? I'm guessing down towards the trail/road/path etc etc ??

[@casey197930]

Great job guys! Looking forward to more in the series! What would you recommend for a super wide spread lights mounted to the A piller to shine on the sides? I can figure out the mount that will need to move or be out of the way to put my top on, but I'm curious on your suggestions for one light on each side. Thanks!

[@jonhenson2523]

Thanks Taylor, great explanation and video. I’ll go adjust mine now, 😉

[@billycollins1757]

Anything illegal about using them in any states.On road usage? Use with high beams or low beams or should they have their own switch. Were they orange or clear?

[@rickcovarrubias352]

I love your new series. I am looking for a 20" light bar for my from bumper. When I purchase the Gravity Pro 6, you mentioned that you had a new one coming out. Which is that one and what do you recommend. Thanks

Are lights important? Brought to you by the light company

I’m installing my KC Slimlites on ditch light mounts on my 07 Toyota RAV4 tomorrow!

[@Greasyfingers60]

It looks like the ditch lights on the Bronco in your video are amber. At least they look warmer white, compared to the LED headlights. Do you have any thoughts on color temperature for ditch lights?

[@MichaelLee-yh7ss]

Yellow would be better for fog or snow

[@andywang7862]

Goo Taylorrr!

The Bronco in the video only had 1 ditch light per A pillar. It is very common for off-roaders to put 2 ditch lights per corner. 1 is aimed beside the vehicle even with the A pillar & the 2nd Ditch light ( on each side ) is aimed forward about 45 degrees.

[@azayreyes4917]

I've hardly seen anyone run 2 but that could be because I'm not paying attention 😅

[@u.s.militia7682]

What did he say his last name was? How do you pronounce Ulrich?

[@mikemikemike2884]

👍👍👍

[@paulelliott682]

Are they important ? Well DITCH lights will keep you out of the DITCH out in the boonies at NIGHT. Which would eliminate a $$$$ tow in. So yeah LP4 or LP6s could be a good investment. A PRO6 roof line light bar with 6 lights is also a wise investment. To complete the KC HiLiTES look you put a pair of LP6's on the Bull Bar and LP9's on the top edge of the front bumper. Widthwise the LP9's would be in between the main headlights and the Bull Bar LP6 set. ( Think off-road 1968 SHELBY GT 500KR ) Now you can be seen by satellite LOL in the OZ Outback, Moab or The Badlands.

[@IndirectHydrox]
